The self-adhesive label is a composite material, which is made of paper, film or other special materials, coated with an adhesive on the back, and a silicon-coated protective paper as the original paper. After printing, die-cutting, etc. are completed, the label is made. The printing and plate-making methods of self-adhesive labels are introduced in detail below, let's take a look!
Stickers are generally printed on two types of paper. One is the paper monomer structure and the adhesive layer, the adhesive layer mainly includes active glue, etc.; the other is the surface matrix, which is covered with pressure-sensitive adhesive. There are two different ways of printing on two different papers.
Using a self-adhesive label printer, monomer and adhesive structures can be produced. The other one can be made with a self-adhesive printer. Various printing methods such as printing, embossing, perforation, and lamination can be carried out. There are also many printing methods used for
stickers, including embossing, footprint, flexo, and screen printing.
Self-adhesive plate making for sticker printing is mainly the production of printing plates. These include punching and flattening. Labels have a variety of self-adhesive forms, such as letterpress printing, gravure printing, offset printing, flexographic printing and so on. The printing methods of
stickers mainly include flat press printing, rotary printing and silk screen printing. When printing, you can choose different printing methods according to the characteristics of the printed product and the purpose of use.
